How manual roller shutters work, and what to ask for
Because there is no wiring, a manual shutter avoids the cost of a power supply and electrical connection. Manual shutters can be converted to electric later if the curtain and box are in good condition.
Springs lose tension over time, so a manual shutter that has become heavy to lift usually needs adjustment rather than replacement. Regular cleaning of the guide rails keeps a manual curtain running smoothly and reduces the effort needed.
What's included
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths
- Spring-balanced push-up operation
- Powder coating to a RAL colour
- Can be converted to electric later
- Bottom-rail and padlock locking options

Rules in England
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Questions about manual roller shutters in Tamworth
Do you cover Tamworth?
Yes. Tamworth (B79) is within our Staffordshire coverage, along with nearby Lichfield, Sutton Coldfield and Aldridge.
Can I add a motor later?
Yes, in many cases. If the curtain, barrel and box are in good order, a tube motor and key switch can be fitted. See our manual-to-electric conversion service.
Why is my manual shutter so heavy to lift?
Usually the spring in the barrel has lost tension or the guides need cleaning. A shutter engineer can re-tension the spring, which is far cheaper than replacing the shutter.
What is the widest manual shutter?
Push-up shutters work best up to about 3m wide. Wider or heavier curtains are normally fitted with a hand crank or a motor so they can be operated safely.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
